2022 Nissan Kicks

Engine Type

Each 2022 Nissan Kicks comes with a powerful, modern, and fuel-efficient 1.6-Liter engine with the Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). The engine has a beautifully lightweight design that gives drivers the exceptional efficiency of 31mpg when in the city and 36mpg when on the highway. Giving drivers satisfactory acceleration, the 2022 Kicks’ engine provides a 122-horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque that goes from 0-60mph in just 9.7 seconds. The 2022 Kicks provides its buyers with sprightly and alert responsiveness when cruising down the road, and allows for smooth and safe travels no matter the destination while sipping regular gasoline and remaining fuel-efficient the entire ride.

Driving and Handling

Driving with the 2022 Kicks allows anyone behind the wheel to feel like a pro while maintaining a safe and nimble experience for every adventure, solo or with the entire family. No matter if buyers are taking on stop-and-go traffic or cruising through the city, the Kicks uses technology to enhance the driving experience for everyone with a touch of its magic. Technology like the Hill Start Assist (to help hold the Kicks in place on a hill or steep incline), the Intelligent Engine Brake (which allows for smoother deceleration whenever the vehicle is coming to a stop or is cornering), the Intelligent Trace Control (which helps the Kicks hug curves with effortless handling as it reads the situation and can break each individual wheel if needed), and the Active Ride Control (which can automatically apply brakes and adjust engine torque for smoother ride conditions); all help ensure a smooth, peppy, and safe trip for every journey.

Exterior Features

Enjoy the 2022 Kicks in twelve colorways of your choice, with five two-tone coats and seven monotone coats. The colorways for the two-tone coats include Scarlet Ember with Super Black, Aspen White TriCoat with Super Black, Boulder Gray Pearl with Super Black, Monarch Orange Metallic with Super Black, and Electric Blue Metallic with Super Black; while the monotone coats include Scarlet Ember, Electric Blue Metallic, Super Black, Gun Metallic, Boulder Gray Pearl, Aspen White TriCoat, and Fresh Powder. 

Buyers can also enjoy the exterior ground lighting for extra style at night, and the beautifully redesigned available 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels. They can even expect to stand out in any crowd thanks to the aggressively styled exterior that has been refreshed from the very front to the end. New, sharp edges trimmed from the hood and headlights sweep right into winding lines that flow back over the aerodynamic wraparound LED lights giving the Kicks a unique and stand-out style that is hard to miss or not gaze at on the road.

Interior Features

Buyers can certainly expect to kick back and relax in their 2022 Nissan Kicks thanks to the customizable cargo space with versatile configurations as well as space, with up to 32.3 cu. ft and the ability to garner a 60/40-split rear seat. The cargo area is not the only spacious thing about the Kicks, as it also is designed to include up to five passengers and still manages to have ample cargo room and smart storage. Storage is further amplified thanks to the center armrest with storage that has enough room to hold wallets, phones, and other essential items for the driver or the passenger and beautifully melts in with the rest of the interior. The Zero Gravity seats that were inspired by space-age technology have been integrated for further comfort and to assist in reducing fatigue on longer trips.

The 2022 Kicks also brings with it some beautiful interior options for seats that are just as customizable as the exterior with all its different shades. Buyers can choose from three different options for the interior, each bringing a unique feel for the vehicle that can be mated with each exterior coat option. The interior options include Charcoal Cloth for the S and SV trims, Charcoal Sport Cloth for the SR trim, and Charcoal Prima-Tex for the SR trim with the Premium Package.
